Chapter 196 Bee Colony Goes Wild

“A bee colony!”

When Ou Yangming and his travel companions gathered again, they looked rather worried.

In the forest, large-sized beasts were not the ones that were feared. The ferocious beasts were strong and valiant, but if a group of people cooperated well, they could easily slaughter the beasts.

On the contrary, anyone would have to be cautious against poisonous insects like the bees.

At times, a seemingly insignificant bite was all it took to take one’s life away.

The number of bees ahead of Ou Yangming and the others were so appalling that they shuddered with fear.

Ou Yangming would not be too concerned if they encountered ferocious beasts that were similar to giant wolves. After all, he had his biggest trump card with him. With the Devouring attribute, Ou Yangming could regain Qi and blood at any time, so much so that he was confident about killing beasts for three days and three nights.

However, if his opponents were bees from a bee colony that covered the sky… Ou Yangming immediately got rid of his thoughts of wanting to be a hero.

“Go around them.”

“Okay, we’ll go around them.”

None of them objected to the idea because they chose the safest option.

Nevertheless, just as they started to retreat, an earth-shattering sound was heard coming from behind them, then two humongous bodies swayed and ran speedily in their direction.

“Roar, roar, roar…”

Mad roars echoed in the air. The beings dashed straight past them and charged at the bee colony ahead.

Ou Yangming and the others looked at each other. They clearly saw two enormous black bears das.h.i.+ng with unstoppable momentum toward the densely packed trees.

Afterward, countless poisonous bees began dancing crazily, and the void was filled with a fearsome aura.

“Oh no, leave now!” He Liangce’s face took on a ghastly expression as he shouted.

Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong knew that they were in a terrible situation, thus they instantly ran in the opposite direction as fast as they could.

Nonetheless, they were a step too late because the flying bees had already noticed them, and the poisonous bees in their direction were zooming toward them without any hesitation.

‘You blind little creatures! The two unthinking black bears were the ones who charged at your colony-why are you blinded too!’ Ou Yangming cursed Despite that, a complaint was a complaint. There was no room for explanations because the poisonous bees were attacking them without control.

A poisonous bee was within reach in an instant. It bent its waist, fluttered its wings, and slightly shook its stinger with the intent to launch an attack.

It was then that a flash of saber-light slashed the bee into two.

Ou Yangming was fleeing with Ni Yinghong at the moment, but he still had control of his surroundings. Once a poisonous bee attempted to hurt them, he struck first to gain an advantage. That said, the instant he killed the poisonous bee, the colony of bees far away changed their direction abruptly. As a result, thousands and ten thousands of them flew toward Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong.

The dead poisonous bee was like a trigger that drew the attention of the other poisonous bees at once, causing them to swarm over like a cloud.

Ou Yangming’s face changed, but he did not regret it.

If he had not slashed the poisonous bee just now, Ni Yinghong would have gotten injured.

However, Ou Yangming felt troubled when he noticed the closely-packed bee colony pursuing them. He gritted his teeth and instructed as he let go of Ni Yinghong’s hand, “Brother He, let’s split up. Take Elder Sister Ying with you—I’m trusting you to protect her.”

It was evident the poisonous bees were after Ou Yangming, hence Ni Yinghong could be out of danger if they separated, whereas it might be a disaster if they stuck together.

“No!” This time, Ni Yinghong did not compromise. She turned pale.

Naturally, she knew the things Ou Yangming could perceive. If the bee colony only chased after him, he would likely end up in a horrendous state.

Ou Yangming widened his eyes, but just as he was going to respond to her, He Liangce shouted sternly, “Both of you, shut up!” Ni Yinghong and Ou Yangming were taken aback because they knew He Liangce as a gentle and graceful young master. Even after the two b.l.o.o.d.y fights in the dense forest, he never lost his bearing.

This time, He Liangce sounded ruthless.

He Liangce brushed his collar to remove his robe, then as he turned his wrist, the robe flew upward.

Ou Yangming fixed his eyes on the robe, and he made a shocking discovery because the robe grew much bigger when it rose to the sky.

Following that, the robe landed slowly and enveloped the three of them.

The robe was incredibly strange because it did not stick close to their bodies; it transformed into a stone-like cover that s.h.i.+elded them. Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong were astonished as they exchanged glances.

No wonder He Liangce did not equip himself with any equipment after they entered the dense forest, and he was not stained with blood even after a b.l.o.o.d.y fight.

It turned out that his robe was a treasure.

Ou Yangming scanned the robe, which seemed to have changed into a stone after it wrapped them up, and they were inside the stone at the moment.

They did not feel oppressed under the robe, and they could vaguely see the situation outside through the robe’s thin material.

A seemingly endless colony of bees was soon at close quarters with them, and each of the poisonous bees had powerful combat power, where their essence was contained in their stingers. Although their life would be shortened once they lost their stinger, they were willing to give up their lives. When the bee colony began to descend, Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong felt their hearts pounding.
